The Aberdeen Team.

The News Of yesterday says: About
fifty Of the firemen, including the Alb
erdeen cornet land of seventeen pieces,
start this morning for Mitchell. The
boys have been in active training for
some time past and do not expect to
come home empty handed. The city
council has shown great generosity in
voting them $500 for expenses, and
whether or not the boys bring home
the banner or the hose cart, they may
feel well repaid for their donation.
The liremen are under command of
Chief j. H. Hauser; Captain Koch Of
the hook, Captain White of the hose,
and Captain Tucker of the running
teams. For the first time in the his
tory of Aberdeen, the Milwaukee
company refuses to take their appa-
ratus on the passenger train. This,
the company claims, is because it is
running its trains too fast. The boys
will take their hose carts with them on
the Milwaukee passenger in the morn
ing, but in consequence of the COM
pany's action, the hook and ladder
truck will be sent down on the eleven
o'clock freight. Huron has won the
banner for two successive years and
will make Il determined effort to win
it this year, but this will be met by an
equally determined effort on the part
of the Aberdeen boys. Aberdeen will
also endeavor to win the hose cart
from the Sioux Falls team. The con-
tests will be close and exciting and
none of the teams will be sure OF vic

What Are rhev Atraid Of?

Press, IA: The tournament is of cs-
pecial interest to Sioux Falls, rs it will
determine whether or not the Sioux
Falls fire department will be the win
ners of the prize hose cart, and, should
she succeed third time, the cart will
be hers, a thing which has never been
accomplished by an amateur team.
The running team this year is in excel
lent condition, and is believed to be in all
respects fully as strong as in either of
the two previous years. OF course much
depends upon the judges in the hose
race. Not that it is to be supposed for
an instant that there would be any
fraudulent injustice done to any COM
pany that should enter for the contest,
but the element of personal error and
latent prejudice might deny the Bridge
running team its well earned laurels.
However, the boys will go into the con.
test with every hope of success, and
will work hard to gain the prize, let
the result be what it may. Ii defeat
awaits them they will accept 1t philo-
sophically, and should success crown
their efforts third time they can
know what to expect on their return
to this city.

San Diego Frieght.

A story is told to the effect that Senator Stanford opposed the ex,en. sion of the Southern Pacific south ward into San Diego county, some years ago, and that he answered the opportunities of prominent official of the road by asking what use there was of building a road into a country where they had to import potatoes and other vegetables. On the occa- sion of the recent visit of the Senator to Southern California. while in Los Angeles in company with the official before alluded to, his attention was called by the latter to train of freight cars on the track of the Atchison and Topeka company, marked "perish- able" "Do you know what those cars contain, Senator?" queried the official. "No," answered the Senator, Tn an interested tone. Potatoes" was the reply. So much emphasis was placed on the word that the Sena- tor remembered his opposition of years before. He was probably con- vinCed that it is not always wise to wait until the freight is in sight be- fore providing facilities for hauling it.-Rural Californian.
